I'm convinced that there's some type of magical particles in Rosario Dawson's skin that equates to her magical glow. (Or maybe, like most celebrities, she just has an awesome facialist/dermatologist/$2,000 face creams.) Whatever it is, she looks great and her makeup at the Met gala did her natural beauty some serious justice. Makeup artist Troy Surratt (for Bobbi Brown) gives us the scoop on how he created the look:

Troy Surratt first used Face Touch Up Stick in Warm Natural (4.5) to even out the eye and nose area.

Next, he applied Moisturizing Cream Compact in Honey (5) with a sponge and set it with powder for a flawless complexion.

To warm up Rosario’s skin, Troy dusted Medium Bronzing Powder on her the areas where the sun would naturally hit the face.

Troy Tip: “When wearing your hair up and using bronzer, be sure to apply a bit of bronzer to the ear lobes. Pale ears are a telltale sign that you fudged your tan.”

For a light, reflective glow, Troy brushed Shimmer Blush in Bahamas Brown on the apples of Rosario’s cheeks before lightly applying Creamy Lip Color in Raisin Berryon her lips.

To make her eyes really stand out, Troy used his finger to apply and blend Tinted Eye Brightener in Medium to Dark Bisque under her eyes for additional brightness.
